Sidekick-CA Pillar of the Community United States 509 Posts	Posted 04/15/2011 4:23 pm This is a Canon 8MP Point-n-Shoot Here's same coin with 8MP Canon Rebel stock lens 18-55 MM. Guess it could have used some lightening up but wanted to show it right out of the camera. Wish someone had told me about these DSLR things before ! Report this Post to the Staff

JackB Pillar of the Community United States 1064 Posts	Posted 04/15/2011 7:59 pm I would think the 2nd pic is much clearer, but both seem like great photos. Which photo would YOU say most reflects what the actual in-hand coin looks like? Report this Post to the Staff

I'd say the first foto has a tad too much gold and the 2nd foto a tad too much blue but overall the 2nd is closest especially for the detail. Report this Post to the Staff
